elevated vzkcn A golden heart stopped beating,

elevated vzkcn Hard working hands at rest,

elevated vzkcn It broke our hearts to see you go,

elevated vzkcn God only takes the best.

elevated vzkcn They say that memories are golden,

elevated vzkcn Well maybe that is true,

elevated vzkcn But we never wanted memories,

elevated vzkcn We only wanted you,

elevated vzkcn Your life was love and labour,

elevated vzkcn Your love for your family true,

elevated vzkcn You did your best for all of us,

elevated vzkcn We will always remember you.

elevated vzkcn We sat beside your bedside,

elevated vzkcn Our hearts were crushed and sore,

elevated vzkcn We did our duty to the end,

elevated vzkcn ‘Til we could do no more.

elevated vzkcn In tears we watched you sinking,

elevated vzkcn We watched you fade away,

elevated vzkcn And though our hearts were breaking,

elevated vzkcn We know you could not stay.

elevated vzkcn Our lips cannot speak how we love you,

elevated vzkcn Our hearts cannot tell what to say,

elevated vzkcn But God only knows how we miss you,

elevated vzkcn In our heart you will always stay.
